    • Carbonation evolution of lime putty coatings with mussel shell aggregate 

      Martínez-García, Carolina; González-Fonteboa, Belén; Carro-López, Diego; Martínez-Abella, Fernando (Elsevier, 2020)
      [Abstract:] The carbonation process is studied from young ages up to 2 years in mortars with fine mussel shell aggregate. Mussel shell aggregate affects lime mortars due to its shape (angular and flaky) and texture (smooth), ...

    • Comparing circulating fluidised bed fly ash and limestone as additions for cement 

      Carro-López, Diego; González-Fonteboa, Belén; Eiras López, Javier; Seara Paz, Sindy (Emerald Publishing, 2019)
      [Abstract:] Circulating fluidized bed combustion (CFBC) power plants produce as by-product large ash particles with elevated calcium content. They are not commonly accepted as addition for cement although presenting ...

    • Constitutive behaviour of masonry prisms using a full-field measurement technique 

      Bello, Ismail; Wardeh, George; González-Fonteboa, Belén; Martínez-Abella, Fernando; Ghorbel, Elhem (Elsevier, 2022)
      [Abstract:] To obtain analytical models for the compressive behaviour of masonry structures, it is crucial to accurately measure the compressive strengths of its constituents, i.e., brick and mortar. The mechanical properties ...
